Heather Blease (rhymes with "skis") is CEO of SaviLinx. SaviLinx is a contact center – that’s them on the other end of the phone when you want to enroll in a new dental plan or have problems with your student financial aid. Savilinx was just ranked #28 on the Inc. 500. May I say, that is just incredible. One of the highest listings achieved by any Maine company ever.
This episode is brought to you by The Dunham Group. To get on that Inc 500 list, you need to grow your business fast. That means a good office, a good building. Don’t wait around - visit our custom link to straight to the property listings.
Recording this episode was the first time I met Heather, she’s really been someone I’ve looked to over as a Maine entrepreneur's role model. Not too many people reach 2500 employees in just a few years, as she did with her first business; and SaviLinx is poised for strong growth as well. I especially appreciated Heather's progressive views on hiring people in recovery – I am passionate about this in my work in the Legislature, and employers who are willing to give people a second chance are so important.
Enjoy!

mainers represent!being from maine as well content like this is so important for others from small humble roots to hear. so many think just because they come from a small place or somewhere that doesn't have a booming economy that they can't make it happen. martin and his guests are some of many examples that this is not the case - inspiring content, keep it up!
